“…In contrast, HSI with remote sensing examines many contiguous, narrow spectral channels (Campbell, 1996); thus, it is able to provide additional information, and no critical data are lost. HSI with remote sensing is better than MSI and demonstrates versatility for a variety of crop monitoring applications (Hunt et al, 1989;Blackburn, 1998;Champagne et al, 2003;Zhu et al, 2006;Wang et al, 2008;Prabhakar et al, 2011;Ranjan et al, 2012;Pradhan et al, 2014;Mahajan et al, 2014;Prasannakumar et al, 2014). HSI has already proven to be very effective in defense, agricultural research, and environmental applications (Lu and Chen, 1999;Ustin et al, 2004;Farley et al, 2007).…”
